Definitions

  • the present invention relates to improvements made packaging made of a semi-rigid material such as cardboard or corrugated cardboard, inside which is thermoformed a film of plastic protection.
  • Packages of this type are well known in the art (see FR-A-1 515 444, EP-A-072 742 and EP-A-0 192 537) and they are intended, in particular, for the packaging of foodstuffs, likely to exude liquids, that the film plastic, impervious to gases and liquids, prevents from reaching the cardboard or corrugated cardboard packaging.
  • this package has one or more flat edges, at its upper part, the film of plastic material covers these edges and it is thus possible, after filling the package, to weld a seal on this film, in order to perfectly protect the packaged products.
  • EP-A-072 742 discloses various solutions already known in the prior art and the problems encountered, and proposes to arrange in the cardboard bottom part slots whose edges are offset by deformation of the carton and thus immobilized by the plastic material. It is clear, however, if we refer to the drawings of this document, that one only gets bottom parts slightly shifted relative to each other and not true compartments.
  • the present invention aims at providing a method for make real partitions inside the packaging mentioned above, these partitions can be used to separate items or lots articles which are packaged or can also be used as large items, which then rest on the edges of these partitions.
  • the Applicant has, in fact, established that by practicing orifices in the bottom of cardboard or corrugated cardboard introducing pins which protrude inside the package, before to thermoform the plastic film, it is possible, by judiciously choosing the dimensions of the bottom orifices and those of the spikes, as well as the intervals separating them, from realize between the different pins a continuous veil enveloping these which after solidification of the plastic material and removal of the pins, forms a continuous partition inside the packaging, protruding above the film covering the bottom.
  • the invention therefore has for its first object a method of manufacturing a packaging made of a semi-rigid material such as cardboard corrugated cardboard, the inside of which is protected by a film of thermoplastic material, wherein, after shaping of the packaging in semi-rigid material, it is thermoformed inside this film of thermoplastic material, this method being characterized in that before thermoforming the thermoplastic material, lines of perforations or cuts having been previously practiced in the bottom of the packaging, engages in these perforations, from outside the packaging, pins protruding internally therefrom substantially perpendicular to the bottom, thermoforming is carried out so as to wrap the line or lines of pins with a substantially continuous web of plastic material, the plastic material is allowed to solidify, and remove the pins so that the plastic web or sails solidified form one or more partitions inside the packaging.
  • a semi-rigid material such as cardboard corrugated cardboard
  • the invention also relates to a packaging made of a material semi-rigid interior with a protective film in thermoformed plastics material having one or more parts protruding therefrom relative to the bottom form one or more internal partitions, this packaging having been achieved by the implementation of the method defined above.
  • the subject of the invention is a pre-cut and repressed blank a semi-rigid material such as cardboard or corrugated cardboard, intended for be used in the process according to the invention, characterized in that that part corresponding to the bottom of the packaging from this blank has perforation or cut-out lines in which can be engaged pins during the implementation of the method defined above.
  • This packaging is made by shaping the cardboard blank precut and corrugated corrugated shown in Figure 4, and it includes a bottom part 1, on which are articulated by lines of folding parallel two longitudinal walls 2, two transverse walls 3 perpendicular to the preceding, and four walls 4 adjacent to the walls 2 and disposed obliquely between them and the walls 3. These walls 4 are extended by strips 5, which are clamped between the walls 3 and panels 6, articulated by a double upset to the upper part of these walls 3 and folded towards the inside of the package, tabs 7 protruding from these panels 6 towards the bottom and being engaged in cutouts 8 thereof, to lock the corrugated packaging in the mounted position.
  • Strips 9 extend obliquely the spaces 10 located between the two upsets formed at the upper part of the walls 3 and are placed horizontally at the top of the walls 4.
  • Other types of assembly for example using collages, can naturally be used.
  • thermoplastic material After shaping this corrugated packaging, a sheet of thermoplastic material is usually thermoformed to inside of it and it protrudes into 13 at the top of the walls 2 to 4, here inside and outside of it, to form a sitting parallel to the bottom 1, on which can be welded a lid of plastic protection, which appears in Figure 3.
  • rows of perforations 11, here circular in shape are previously practiced in the bottom 1 of corrugated cardboard, to define the profile of the base of partitions designed to divide into various compartments the interior of packaging.
  • To make these partitions before thermoforming of the thermoplastic film, is engaged from the outside, in the perforations 11, pins that protrude inside the corrugated cardboard packaging and then only thermoforming the thermoplastic film.
  • thermoformed film forms one or more continuous veils, which enclose the pins and protrude inside the package, from the perforations 11.
  • these continuous sails form partitions 12, which, in the case of the figures 1 to 4, are perpendicular to the partitions 2 and 3 and divide the packaging in four compartments, in which four identical or different articles, for example four cheeses, or still lots of different items, for example cakes or other accompaniments for aperitifs, etc.
  • the perforation lines 11 made in the bottom 1 can be absolutely arbitrary, depending on the number and shape of desired compartments inside the packaging conforming to the invention.
  • the invention thus provides a particularly simple means and easy to implement, which does not require the addition of components or additional material, to make partitions inside a cardboard or corrugated cardboard packaging, comprising an inner layer of a thermoformed plastic material.
